The Girl With A Pearl Earring by LD4Japan

The Girl With A Pearl Earring

Description

This is my version of The Girl With A Pearl Earring, by Johannes Vermeer. It was actually my final project for art class. The assignment was to find a famous art piece and change the style and medium. It was my first time really dabbling with ink and water colors because they are hard mediums to work with >.<! I also used acrylics for the background. My scanner sort of bites T_T, so this piece looks MUCH less sucky in person. Well, I really hope that you like it!
